Technology and Communication for Men and Women

Here's a little bit of a funny take on communication technology for you this fine Friday Funny Day.  The following are tv commercials for Verizon and Motorolla's Droid Razr.  Notice the stark contrast in how mother/daughter and father/son react to graduation and moving away.  Here is the original Mother/Daughter commercial.  Later on, Verizon got some complaints and changed the commercial so that it didn't need subtitles.  I'm not sure what the complaint was or why the change, but in my humble opinion, the original was much funnier.  Here is the Father/Son commercial, also with subtitles.  Nobody complained there.  What do you think of the commercials?  Why do you think the original Mother's Day commercial was changed?  Why do you think the...

Happy Mother's Day

Mother's Day is a time I look back.  Each year as a mom brings me unique blessings I want to savor.  Life will never again be as it is now.  I want to take the time to remember and cherish it. This picture was taken several years ago.  A lot has changed since then.  We don't even live in the same state as we did then.  My dd is all grown up now and going into her Junior year at college.  My son is almost my height.  As my father always says, "Tempus certainly does fugit" around here! Happy Mother's Day to each of you!
